It is a game that is reminiscent of the classic version of Capcom's Ghouls 'n Ghosts with its side-scrolling action and simple graphics. I should mention now that Battle Princes is still in development, and its r... more.

The music is straight out of a 60s superhero show and the character design is amazing. ... more.

It has an interesting story combined with an original art style that will draw the player in enough to keep playing to the end, but it is not without some flaws. The game often times feels as if it is trying to be... more.
